Then there's a long way to go. Petrol in Europe is still 6 times more expensive. No, really. 6 times.

No but it correlates very strongly

Yeah i know, therefor it said OVER 25 years....

Is this a joke article? Please.
We've been using random mutagenesis for over 25 years now to improve seeds, and guess what, we improved our technology over time. Not only is the secondary mutation mitigated via thorough back-crossing, but these days technology moved that only the gene of interest is actually changed. Read some recent patents by Monsanto or Keygene for a clue. This article is fear mongering bullshit that would have had truth in it if it was written in 1975.

Well the official designation is Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic, M1911A1

The current problem with UDP is that many border routers do not check whether outgoing udp packages are from within their network. This is the base for DNS based ddos attacks. They are very difficult to mitigate on server level without creating openings for Joe job attacks instead... Standardizing on udp for other protocols will emphasize this problem

Yeah, and sale and possession of firearms enables rapist to threaten and rape children! Yet we don't seem to imply the same logic there. How strange.

Child rape is becoming the new Godwin. Before we know it Glenn Beck will be using it every other sentence as well.

So how would the EU go about jailing the NSA?

No you use this to incorporate nonnatural amino acids into biological production within controlled growth cultures. This results in better usage of the available chemical space, and creation of degradation tolerant peptides. Pharma companies like this.

Sheesz people, we've been rprogramming trna to use nonnatural amino acides for over 10 years now! Theres even a few companies st up that do just that. The principle of trna modification is old, just their method is new

The Zeconomist has a debate about it

what language is "cgi-bin"?

Wasnt the kernel of their unbreakable linux open source as well?

How the hell is this not industrial espionage? And then you expect me to host my backups in a US-based cloud or use US-based services like Office365? Apparantly these NSA-approved encryption techniques dont work so good when you're trying to shield from the NSA.

How about this cloud-based electronic laboratory-notebook software that is being pitched to pharma companies. These contain all the sensitive data before the patents are filed. Will that data be "shared" with my competition as well?

in the mean time microsoft has no issue charging a similar percentage to android manufacturers
